Development of a Web Application Platform to Enhance the Efficiency of Project Monitoring Processes under the Annual Budget Plan of the College of Local Administration, Khon Kaen University

Abstract

 This research aims to develop a web application platform to enhance the efficiency of project monitoring processes under the annual budget plan of the College of Local Administration, Khon Kaen University, and to study the users’ satisfaction with the platform. The sample group consists of 26 individuals, including executives and support staff. The study results indicate that the developed system significantly improves the efficiency of project monitoring at the college. Specifically, it ensures data unity and accuracy, securely stores information, and allows up-to-date access to project status and budget expenditure data. Users’ satisfaction with the system was evaluated and found to be highest in terms of ease and speed of access ( = 4.60, SD= 0.50), high for the appropriateness of the report format ( = 4.08, SD= 0.86), high for usefulness to users and stakeholders ( = 4.12, SD= 0.67), and overall satisfaction was high ( = 4.20, SD= 0.76), with an average overall satisfaction score of high ( = 4.25, SD= 0.69).

The research suggests further development of this platform to integrate with financial, accounting, and inventory systems, which are currently separate, and to design an online disbursement system to replace paper-based or document-heavy processes, consolidating everything into a single system.
